Riddle Me This

See if you can answer these questions (click on the photos to enlarge them). Lord knows I couldn't answer them then so I sure as hell won't know it now. I don't use this stuff when popping in a Princess movie or weighing a banana. Shit, that's what the computers are for. Heh.

See those doodles and whatnot on the last one my young readers? That's called long division. Yeah, we had to actually show the work. That's the only proof I have that at some point in my sad high school career, I knew something remotely educational.

And no, these tests are not written on papyrus paper as my brother in law suggested. They're from the 80's. Not from the same era as the Dead See Scrolls.

When was the first time that you realized that your home was not like other people’s homes?

We let our son play the Wii, computer or DS for far longer than other parents or even the "…

I am full of all sorts of feelings and had to write about it. I would love to hear your thoughts on this whole thing. No really, I would. I don't feel I was a douchebag in my writing so all I ask is you not be a douchebag in your response. Thanks.

My thoughts on the Adrian Peterson situation (but first, some backstory): I was spanked as a child. I'm pretty sure most of us that grew up in the 80s were.Until the summer between 5th and 6th grade I lived in Charelston, SC and from 6th to 11th grade, North Chicaco, IL. I have seen every form of discipline doled out on a child. I've seen spankings, beatings, hairbrushes smacked into heads, spoons hitting the tops of heads, whips, belts and even switches. I've seen it all.Most of you know that my son is named after a little boy who died from c…
